I am the inheritor of a Chickering baby grand piano, circa 1890.  The 
soundboard has a crack in it and a few of the keys stick, but other than that 
it appears to be in great shape.  I'm interested in learning how much the thing 
is worth and how much it would cost to restore it.  Does anyone know of a 
reputable appraiser/restorer in the D.C. area?  Comments concerning Chickering 
pianos from the late 1800s to the early 1900s are also welcome.  Thanks.
